I would not say guaranteed to fail. I've seen pi systemd issues on maybe 20% of reboots (on other projects). The thing is, once the pi is properly 'up' from a networking perspective (and that includes having an assigned IP address) then no delays at all are needed. So 'sudo systemctl restart ngrok.service' would work with no delays in it at all, every time. The problem is what to do when this runs at system boot, where services start asynchronously rather than serially so every boot is different and things have to wait for each other differently each time. A longer *ExecStartPre *sleep period as mentioned in my docs has the advantage of also delaying the ngrok start itself and not just the updater script. I'd advise (for those with problems) to set this to 90 secs, to set *ExecStartPost *sleep to 5 secs before the updater script then runs, and to set *RestartSec *to something like 300. Then there will be no conflicts and it should all work every time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ philchillbill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=68920 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111016 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
